The aim of this work is to probe the outcomes achieved by 270 subjects, who are going to teach in primary and children’s school, when they plan and execute educational actions in the classroom, and what possible difficulties they encountered during the development of the planned teaching action. In the instructional design the teacher in formation has used SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) as a strategy for the formulation of the goals, the management and the evaluation of the didactic action. Teaching planning was understood by the students both as a structure and as a guide for the action; the design prepared the sequence of education activities, anticipated th…
Insegnanti consapevoli e critici dell’azione didattica attraverso l’analisi SWOT
2020
The present contribution aims at collecting the outcomes achieved by 211 subjects, who are going to teach in primary and children’s school, who used the SWOT Analysis as a context investigation tool to plan, implement and evaluate classroom interventions. In particular, this paper analyzes and discusses the effectiveness of a training program for future teachers, attending the 3rd year of university internship, able to strengthen their critical awareness through a functional knowledge of the school environment and of pupils. The pre-experimental research, which covered nine months in the Academic Year 2017-2018, has actually increased the performance of the sample group, consisting of under…
The adoption of the Euro by Romania
2013
As Romania has joined the European Union, the European currency must be adopted even though it may raise some problems regarding conversion, the impact on goods and services expenses on the interior market having a direct effect on the population and the national economy because we don’t know which the trajectory of the Euro will be. This paper takes a look at the advantages and disadvantages of the adoption of the unique currency in our country taking into account the time factor and the behaviour we must have regarding the Euro, establishing the issues we must take a close look at when the initial term of adoption must be respected.

Students' abilities to evaluate the credibility of online texts: The role of internet‐specific epistemic justifications
2021
Previous evaluation studies have rarely used authentic online texts and investigated upper secondary school students' use of evaluation criteria and deep reasoning. The associations between internet-specific epistemic justifications for knowing and credibility evaluation of online texts are not yet fully understood among adolescents. This study investigated upper secondary school students' (N = 372) abilities to evaluate self-selected authentic online texts and the role of internet-specific epistemic justifications in students' evaluation performance when solving a health-related information problem. Students selected three texts with Google Custom Search Engine and evaluated their credibil…
Defining Complexity Factors for Architecture Evaluation Framework
2006
The design and implementation of telecommunication systems is an incremental and iterative process, and system architectures may need to be revised and refined several times during their lifetime. Formal evaluation facilitates the identification of the weak points, where improvements are due in these architectures. In the domain of telecommunications, such evaluation can be based on the Architecture Evaluation Framework (AEF). During the evaluation, a deep understanding of the processes within a system is needed. Meanwhile, the systems being designed are usually complex systems encompassing a large number of components with an intricate pattern of interaction between them. As a result, it i…
Executive function and life-space mobility in old age
2018
Life-space assessment incorporates all movements in terms of the distance from home, the frequency of movement and the need of assistance for movement. Executive function (EF) is an important higher order cognitive ability that controls and guides people’s goal-directed actions. We examined the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between EF and life-space mobility, and investigated if perceived walking difficulties, lower extremity performance, and transportation difficulties explain the association. Methods 157 community-dwelling persons aged 76–91 years participated in the study at the baseline, and 103 of them in 2-year follow-up study. Based on the distribution on the Trail Ma…
Comparing the monitoring and evaluation systems of watershed management related development projects in Amhara, Ethiopia
2012
Natural resource degradation is both a cause and a result of poverty in Ethiopia. Therefore it is important to include watershed management into efforts to reduce poverty and food insecurity in the country. In order to see if different interventions are effective in restoring the degraded environment, it is important to have a functioning monitoring and evaluation system that includes natural resource degradation and other environmental factors. This study compares the monitoring and evaluation systems used by five different projects involved in watershed management in the Amhara region, Ethiopia. The objective is to find out whether these systems are providing adequate and scientifically v…
